This Guy Proposed To His Girlfriend 148 Times, And She Missed EVERY One.

It's difficult enough to plan one proposal: If you're planning 150 proposals the pressure is way, way on.

That didn't seem to phase a man named Ray Smith. A few years ago, Smith decided to propose to his girlfriend, Claire. Soon afterwards, they found out they were pregnant -- which meant that Smith wanted his proposal to be bigger than he had ever thought it would be. He didn't just want to pop the question once. No, to prove how much Claire meant to him, he had to outdo the traditional proposal by exactly 150%.

Here's how he did it: Every single day for five months straight, Ray asked Claire to marry him. However, he didn't do so by asking to her face In fact, he didn't even get her answer. It sounds a bit complicated, but it all adds up to one of the best proposal stories we've ever seen. See the five months of proposals -- and the story behind them -- below.

Ray began proposing on July 31st. He kept proposing, every single day, for five months after that date.

You can't tell from this photo, but can you guess how he did it? Here's a hint: There's a proposal in each and every one of these images.

Let's go back to the previous day. See it now?

Claire looks so happy, and she has no idea what's going on behind her head.

Every day, Ray had a proposal ready.

The trick was that Ray had written the proposal down on a little white piece of paper, and had to hide the proposal in each one -- while Claire was still in the picture.

It was probably easiest to get shots like these.

After all, if Claire was sleeping, she'd be none the wiser. This was a perfect opportunity to get the shot.

Sometimes, he had to get really creative.

Imagine how difficult it would be to take a selfie with someone, without them knowing that you were randomly hiding a proposal card in each photograph.
